The Bloody Anaches In Flnrida

Herbert Melch, corresponding secretary
OF the Indian Rights association, recently
went to Florida to obtain reliable infor-
nation concerning the Apache Indians i'm.
prisoned in the old Spanish fort in St.
Augustine. Mr.. Welch says:
OF the ninety men, only thirty have been
guilty OF any recent misdoing, (these were
with Geronimo on his recent raid) while
most OF the remainder were employed in
our army rs regularly commissioned
scouts. That these men should have been
imprisoned on the same footing with those
Indians who were at war with the United
States, is Il TACT we'll calculated to at
tract attention. A noble effort is being
made Tor the instruetinn ot the Apnche
men in English speaking and simple studies
by somo OF the Indies of st. Augustine.
Upon tho occasion Of my visit found them
busily engaged teaching twenty-five full
grown nan Tth p.imers nnd blackboard.
Bishop Whtpple, distinguished torso many
years as n friend OF the Indians, at the
conclusion OF the lesson, in speaking to
them few words OF encouragement, said
that in his long experience OF half Il life
time with the Indians, he had seen none
who, inso short a time, had made so great
progress,

Hon. David Davis told the frozen truth when he said Zach year every local paper gives from $500 to s, ,0O0 in free lines for the benefit of the commun- ity in which it is located. No other agency can or will do this. The local editor, in proportion to his means, does more for his town than any other ten men, and in all fairness, man with man, he ought to be supported, not because you happen to like him or admire his writings, but because a local paper is the best investment a community can make. It may not be brilliant or crowd ed with great thoughts, but financially it is more of benefit to community than preacher or teacher. Understand us now, We do not mean morally or in- tellectually but financially, and yet on the moral question you will find the ma jority of the local papers are on the right side of the question. To-day the editors of local papers do the most work for the least money of any men on earth. Sub scribe for your local paper, not as a charity, but as an investment"

The killing of Deputy Sheriff Lock. hart, Palmer and King by the Navajo Indians, on February 9th, some twenty five miles southeast of Navajo, is an other instance of their heinous and das- taYdly outrages. The Sheriff and posse went to arrest one of these Indians for horse stealing, and the result was the loss of their lives. A company of troops came up from Fort Wingate-being well mounted they made the distance, forty five miles, in three days-they spent two days at Bennett's ranch, ten miles from where these men were murdered, then returned to Wingate, having performed excellent and meritorious services.
 These murdering Indians have not been arrested, and no efforts whateves have been made on the part of the mill. tary to punish them for their crimes, or avenge the lives of these men. If In dians are to be permitted to leave their reservations to steal, plunder and open ly defy the civil law and murder civil officers or any one else, We believe they should be turned over to the civil au- thorities to be held responsible for their depredations and crimes, or the citizens should shoot every Indian found off the reservation. Thus treated We would soon have the only good Indian known to American history.

bands ranch dark came'on and it began to snow. It is supposed that through anxiety for her children and fear, she became confused, and thought she was lost. At any rate, the blackboard was found standing in the road-the horses had been unlocked, the harness from one was found beside the blackboard, the other horse had been permitted to go with the harness on. Search was made by the gentleman who first found the blackboard, but he was unable to discover the unfortunate lady and her little ones. The alarm was then given and parties started in all directions in search of the lost but they were una ble to find them until the second day. Alas, it was too late. Death had re- lieved the poor mother from anxiety, suffering and pain, and the little ones had accompanied their mother on that long journey from whence no traveller returns-one by her side and the other clasped fondly and lovingly to her bosom. Mir. Cart has the heartfelt sympathy of the entire community in this heart-rend- ing bereavement.

 Judge R. E. Morrison, of the County Court, delivered the following charge to the grand jury which was empanelled on last Monday:
 Members of the Grand Jury-For the past eighteen months, but one grand jury has been empanelled, and that was discharged after session of four days, and before any matters could be brought to an issue, and as a consequence you have long account to settle with evil doers. It is unnecessary for me 10 tell citizens, as you are, of this county, that crime has run rampant, and Apache county has been made the by-word of the Territory. and the laws have been set at defiance. Run the gamut of the criminal code, and you will find that nearly every crime described by our statutes has beer committed.
 With you rests the responsibility of saying whether thls state of affairs shall continue to exist, and whether Apache shall be the haven of rest for criminals high and low, as it is at present. You have been chosen from the body of the county to act for the people, and while you must not be guided by malice or hatred, the law makes it your duty to see that justice shall prevail.
 It matters not whether crimes have been committed in high or low places. It is your duty to be guided by the evil dence presented to you, and see that no guilty man escapes. While investiga- ting cases of cattle and horse stealing, murder and the like, you will also bear in mind that charges affecting the safety of our county have been made. Corrup- ton and fraud in county affairs, have been the talk among the citizens. Par ties have been arrested and bound over to await the action of your honorable body, charged with forgery of county warrants and destruction of public rec ords. On charges so serious and of such far-reaching nature, it is your duty to give fair and impartial hearing to the evidences presented, and say whether such crimes have been committed and whether transgressors should be brought to trial.
 It is your province to inquire into the condition of our county and bring before the bar of justice, all who have been guilty of infractions against our laws.
 You will be as rapid as you can in your investigations so as to lessen the expenses of this court, I am confident in the belief that you will fulfill the trust imposed upon you, and that the District Attorney will render you all the assistance which lies in his power.
 According to the statute it is made an act of contempt of court and misde- meanor for any member of the grand jury to communicate to any one what is being done by that body. Secrecy alone will assist the officers in arresting per sons who have been indicted. (Page 122, section 198, Compiled Laws@
 You will, therefore, keep secret every thing which occurs in the grand jury room, and when not in session you will refrain from discussing what has trans pired.
 You may examine any public build ings and discover if they have been con- structed according to plans and specifi- cations.
 In conclusion-Letth this grand jury set an example which following ones may we'll initiate, and show to the outside world that from this time forward the laws must be obeyed in Apache county.
